I have to admit, I am not the biggest fan of beauty subscription boxes. I like them, but I seem to end up with a bunch of stuff that I never use and I hate to create excess and waste. I have been able to give a lot of it away to people who will use it. I’ve been able to donate my Ipsy bags to a friend who used them to create little gifts to give to the women’s shelter.

And that is not the fault of that particular food delivery program, but rather my own pickiness. I like to stay as low carb as possible without added sugars and as clean as possible.
